The Bulls announced earlier today that explosive loose-forward, Cyle Brink, is the latest addition to their squad.

The 27-year-old former Junior Springboks and Lions star player will be joining the Bulls from English side, Leicester Tigers.

Renowned as a barnstorming runner and an ace at the breakdown, Brink is expected to add depth and experience to a talented group of loose-forwards at the Bulls.

The 27-year-old Brink is a born and bred Johannesburger, who matriculated at King Edward School and served for the Lions at 2012 Craven Week.

He also played for the Lions’ junior teams, before breaking through on the senior scene, where he played in 45 SuperRugby matches and 22 Currie Cup matches for the Johannesburgers.

Brink also played for the Junior Springboks in 2014.

“We are very happy to have secured the services of Cyle Brink. He is an exceptionally gifted athlete who has proven himself as a world-class rugby player from his time at the Lions and now at Leicester Tigers in England over the past year,” Bulls director of rugby, Jake White, said.

White remarked that they have no doubt that Brink will add great value to the squad, both on and off the field, and will equally contribute with his stellar performances, experience and leadership qualities.
